So, Lefty;
What can you share about Access and ALP and the relationship to OpenMoko
and/or other open source efforts (realizing that you probably can't
spill all the beans :-)? Given your comments about former employer
Apple, and activity on this list, seems open source software must be
important to you personally.

Will the Garnet/PalmOS emulator be likely to be available on OpenMoko?

The license certainly seems limiting:

Access has lots of words about open source (e.g.
http://www.access-company.com/about/opensource/index.html). Can we
expect to see real cooperation? How open will Garnet OS be compared to
OpenMoko?
Don't see any "community" around Access of the vitality of OpenMoko.
The Access forums seem rather limited. Some real two-way-street
cooperation would seemingly be mutually beneficial to the two efforts,
as well as to embedded/phone FOSS more generally.
Regards,
Phil
